Why Solar?

Benefits of Solar

If you haven’t made the smart move to powering your home with solar energy, your electricity is generated by “dirty energy” — energy derived from burning non-renewable fossil fuels (coal, oil, and gas).

The Problem: Environmentally Unfriendly Energy

If you aren’t using solar to supplement your electricity usage, your home is being powered by environmentally unfriendly energy — that is, non-renewable fossil fuels like oil, coal, and gas.

Why is standard electricity so harmful?
In the process of extracting fossil fuels from the ground, and then burning them to create power for your home or business, the eco-system suffers severe and irreversible damage. Toxic gases and byproducts hurt the air, soil, and wildlife, and they’re not very good for people, either.

Harmful to Your Health

3.
Harmful for Your Wallet

Creating energy from fossil fuels is wasteful and costly: Two-thirds of the energy produced is lost in the process.1

The Solution: High-Performance Solar

Harnessing the sun’s energy is becoming easier and more affordable every day — so it seems pretty wasteful to continue on the outdated path of burning up nonrenewable fossil fuels for energy. State-of-the-art photovoltaic panels can provide clean energy to run your home and heat your water, with new uses being tested daily. Help Massachusetts become more energy independent by adding solar panels to power up your home or business.

3 Big Benefits of Solar:

1.
Save Money

According to U.S. Department of Energy data, the cost of powering homes and businesses has risen by around 60% in the last 15 years! Never before has securing solar incentives been more crucial for homeowners. With net energy metering, you can generate savings on your electricity bill for every kilowatt-hour you produce that month, and federal tax credits can pay for up to 30% of the cost of your solar system.

2.
Support the Environment

Across the country, over 70% of all electricity is generated by fossil fuels.2 One of the game-changer photovoltaic solar energy pros is that RevoluSun’s high-performance PV systems reduce your reliance on fossil fuels — and minimize air, land, and water pollution.

3.
Sustain Massachusetts

Massachusetts residents pay some of the highest electric rates in the country, but solar energy can help move our state towards a renewable energy tomorrow. According to the Massachusetts Clean Energy Center, 64,000 people in the state now work in the clean energy economy with green jobs expected to keep growing. Adding a RevoluSun system to your home or business locks in your energy savings now while contributing to the fast-growing green economy of the future.

Solar Made Affordable

RevoluSun wants to make sure you get the perfect smart solar solution that keeps your living space comfortable and cost-efficient. Our job is to evaluate all of the factors and design a system that optimizes your investment. And in the spirit of true customer service, we put in the time and effort to help you choose an affordable financing option and navigate the federal, state, and local solar incentives.

The best time to go solar is yesterday!

At RevoluSun, our Massachusetts solar energy experts are working hard to stay on top of the rapidly changing regulations and incentives in the solar industry. Though we can’t predict the future, one thing we know for sure is this: Waiting to add solar never saves you money.

Keep in mind that the rate of return on your solar panels is tied directly to system performance — so superior technology is key.

Solar Incentives for Massachusetts Homeowners

In addition to a 30% federal income tax credit, Massachusetts provides a personal tax credit of $1,000 when you install a new solar system.

In addition, your utility has to buy the renewable energy credits your system produces. Every 1,000-kilowatt hours of production generates a Solar Renewable Energy Credit (SREC) — so the utility will currently buy your SRECs for a period of 10 years!
